Maybe people need to look up the definition of "dislike". I'll be fine if I never hear of Tebow or Favre again in my entire life but I don't dislike them.

there is no reason not to like the guy. If you don't like him, do you also dislike jesus? 
Seriously though, your hating the guy because he does good things and people like him for it.
I don't think Tebow is doing this to gain attention to himself, but rather to the greater cause that he is serving. He uses the media to bring attention to what he feels is important, which is his belief in Christ. He is actually very smart for using the spot light to focus on God, rather than his abilities. This is the exact opposite of guys like Chad Johnson. He uses the media spotlight to bring glory to himself.
chad johnson is just trying to have a good time. I guess i personally just enjoy his antics... all in good fun IMO
I hated all the attention he was getting too, but if you look at the guy and his family, they are very quality people from what I know. Now I am glad he is getting the spotlight. In some ways he looks too good to be true, but I don't think it is fair to compare him to guys like Kobe and Tiger, who never had the same kind of rep. Did anyone think Kobe was a big do gooder before the rape charge? or Tiger before this stuff for that matter? I did think Tiger was a solid guy, but he never made the sort of faith claims or outward showings of kindness like this.
Actually I'd agree with this also. He is a showman, and is having a good time, and although I don't always agree with his decisions, he is entertaining.
I'm not saying he goes around doing horrible things, I'm sure that he doesn't. But would he be someone I would like to be friends with? Is he a nice guy outside of doing the nice things we see on camera? I don't know. I've never met the guy. I don't blame him for it, but I'm tired of hearing about him on the news. Like I said.. for Tebow the person I'm neutral. Tebow the coverage, I'm annoyed.
Just because it is entertaining doesn't make Chad any less of an ***. He is doing it all to bring attention to himself.
Yeah, it's amazing how much a uniform changes my opinion of a person :biglaugh:
That being said I hate Tebow, but to be fair I just really hate hearing about him all the time (see Sports Center anytime during the regular season).
It is hard to deny that he has done some great things with the position he is in.
So you're saying I'm jealous of the guy because I have the same impression of Tebow as you had of Tiger. An impression you had of Tiger which turned out to be true?
Whatever. I'm sorry if I bothered anybody with my comments or hijacked this thread earlier. The story is about him doing a very great thing and I will agree he was a total class act by doing that. Let the Tebow love continue unimpeded. I'll stop commenting on this thread as clearly I seem to be in the minority in regard to public opinion of him and that means I must be jealous.
If Tebow does stumble down the road, the media coverage and criticism will be a million times worse than Tiger's situation. Tiger had a clean cut image, but that is not the same as going to the Phillipines to volunteer, or go into prisons to give motivational speeches imo anyways. Let's hope that day never comes.
